A two bedroom for just two dogs? <br /><br />Try a studio with two dogs, a cat, and a rabbit. <br /><br />I have 4 large crates scattered around that double as shelves/tables. (I also sometimes have dogs stay with me, so need the extra crates.)<br /><br />The rabbit has a 3 floor hutch that doubles as a shelf to keep rabbit hay from the dogs (who eat it for whatever reason).<br /><br />And there are at least 4 dog beds laying around (I lost count a while ago).<br /><br />Now with the cat I have a scratching post-thing on it's way, as well as a huge dog-proof litter box that I need to fit in somewhere.<br /><br />Not to mention a bike.<br /><br />And somehow I have like a 5x5 foot area of free space in the middle!!!<br /><br />Though I will say I'm decorationally challenged and your space looks warm, inviting, and awesome.Sightlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03538720022211433419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-41533585876937339112010-11-11T14:18:30.130-06:002010-11-11T14:18:30.130-06:00Our crate just sits in the front corner of the liv...Our crate just sits in the front corner of the living room.

Now that she's bigger and a crate that'd fit her would take up way too much space in our small condo, she's uncrated. We used to use a baby gate to keep her "crated" in the kitchen while we were out, but now she has free reign of the house, though she usually will just stay on her bed all day (or the couch if we let her). <br />Why does Mr B get a teepee and Miss M gets a crate? Why not teepees for both?brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02490740909541514702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-33492885727310510272010-11-11T11:21:47.893-06:002010-11-11T11:21:47.893-06:00This is fantastic- I definately will be taking tip...This is fantastic- I definately will be taking tips from you about apartment design with dogs! Your space is gorgous. We are about to foster another pit from ACC- (I'm open to the fact that we might fall in love with him and have to adopt.) I saw how well your two pits get along (especially in that adorable video about how Mrs. M is a bully...)and it made me kind of sad that our dog Winnie is alone all day with no playmate. What was it like adding a second dog? Did they instantly get along? Does it help that one is a male and one a female?Passion 4 Pitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15678945184614503335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-43582320525368674682010-11-11T09:57:53.534-06:002010-11-11T09:57:53.534-06:00Both of my dog crates are in my bathroom.

At one point we had two dog crates when we thought we were adopting Keegan. Since we moved back home in April, the birds have been in their smaller "camp" cages, which means the place looks a teeny bit nicer. Right now, Levi's crate is in the dining room, which is oh-so-classy. <br /><br />When we move, I plan on using Levi's crate for dog #2 and putting the birds in the office downstairs. That way, when people come over, we will look like normal human beings and not animal hoarders.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14310521653862222270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-49261264944495840912010-11-11T09:16:31.309-06:002010-11-11T09:16:31.309-06:00Quizz's crate is at the top of the stairs on t...Quizz's crate is at the top of the stairs on the balcony/loft area,where he can see everything in his domain. Especially when the door bell rings. He can peer down through the spindles into the foyer and decide whether he is going to grace the visitor with his presence.
